For the first time I will get the opportunity to minister in the beautiful nation of Kenya. The greatest joy is the amount of faith and passion placed by the Pastors in Kenya for my time there. It has been great to come in touch with some of them and to hear their radical faith for the Kingdom. I will be in Kenya for a week, during which we will have 5 days of open air crusade with expecting a crowd of 2000 plus.

In the mornings I will also be running a special Pastor’s Conference designed by our ministry known as the Leader’s Elevation. It will focus on being Kingdom minded and understanding our inheritance. Most of us have repented far enough to turn away from sin but not turned far enough to see the Kingdom. Jesus said in John 3, when you are born again you will see the Kingdom. My vision for the pastors this trip is to turn some of them far enough to actually SEE the Kingdom and what greater opportunity to see the kingdom during this crusades.

I also want to create room in the conferences for the pastors to ask questions and even discuss about healings, creative miracles that we will see during my time there.

Another exciting time will be impartation – which will complete the deal of what they will receive. During my time in Kenya in a span of 7 days I will have to minister for about a total of 62 hours – How exciting!

If you are reading this from Kenya – please feel welcome to come for these events and get in contact with our local hosts at downpourkenya@alwynmatt.org.

Thanks to everyone for their prayer and love.

An Update from Alwyn Matt

5th February 2009

Dear Folks!

Yes I apologise for the delay! Many have been visiting this website for updates, especially with the current trips in Australia and the constant emphasis by the churches on this website; the visits have increased. But to much disappointment most of you saw the same information as previous visits. I apologise but this in many ways was due to a good problem that occurred. Doors have opened all over the land.

In November I had the opportunity to go to few churches across inland Queensland. Due to His grace much harvest was reaped during those visits and the town of Crowsnest has invited me back for a 3 day city wide crusade!

Since the completion of the 40 day fast, we have seen such great harvest.

New, fresh wells have been reopened which revivalists in the past laboured for. There has been such a great spirit across the leadership. With much travel I am convinced the leaders of churches are done with management, leadership and business attitude but want to press in for the RAW, REAL DEAL GOSPEL OF JESUS! As long as I am alive, I live to see the REAL DEAL GOSPEL that Jesus came to establish.

Last week I was in Brisbane, we have 1 lady who was FULLY paralysed completely healed and running on stage. So many more miracles and much more salvations that is hard to count.

I must inform you before I forget that a free teaching of mine is available on Worship, which was preached at my home church. This teaching is available in download format which you can upload on your ipods or other soaking gadgets.

This teaching is available on the following link: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?u5megrlwkdh

Please be aware that we are also looking at putting up a Resource page on the site as many of you have asked for this. In the long term, we wish to also make the teachings downloadable for easy, quick and immediate access.

As I type this I am in Crowsnest with a day to go for the crusade! I went insane, reading about the crusade in the local newspaper. Many more cities to go, churches to touch, souls to set free, bodies to be healed and nations to inherit!

Love you and a big hug from your brother who is passionate like never before to see you abide in Jesus like never before!

Sheka Rheeba Laba!

I was invited to speak at a Methodist Church..Amazing loving dear beloved people! The youngest person at the meeting was 65! There was this precious grand mom who was 85 years old taking notes as I spoke..and all I kept thinking was ..God..this is too much..this precious grand mom is taking notes while I am speaking?

I was led to talk about the Power of the GOSPEL! Yes! I went on and on and what was supposed to be a 45 minutes sermon went to become 1 hour 45 minutes! As I was winding down my words, the people were like..we want some healing! I was like..bring it to me..I started praying..I am careful with my words, as I mentioned “I”, because it was just me..the rest were watching!

That’s right, demonstrate the gospel through signs and wonders!

Well here are some of the healings that happened:

Bone Cancer healed

Pain in the back healed

Skin Cancer: Recession shown on the skin

Cataract healed and partial blindness

How awesome is that?

I needed to rush back to my room as I needed to complete my assignment. The next day we had a group presentation which was just intense! Right after the presentation I grabbed the bus to Anointed Brisbane!

What a way to end the week?

Australia has been beautiful inside out. With every passing day I love being here, the love, the humility and the joy the churches and the pastors across the state of Queensland, especially Brisbane that has been shown to me has been just unbelievable!

In the past 1 week I have been to almost 6 churches! In the past 2 days I have met up with almost 5 pastors. There is somehow a HUGE expectancy in the hearts of all the leaders here for revival, which is something so comforting. Somehow they are able to understand the frequency that the spirit carries. I am able to truely connect with the churches and each of these churches are individually partnering with each aspect of the vision the Lord has put in my heart. What I thought would take 1 month to achieve has been already achieved in such a large way since my arrival a week back.

Invitations to Sydney, Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, New Zealand and even Paupa New Guinea has come. Any clue what Paupa New Guinea is? Google it!

At this point I want you to pray for this ministry and my integrity as a man of God. With much growth comes higher attacks and your constant support and prayer is much needed. Also, keep the city of Toowoomba (2 hours from Brisbane) in prayer. I stay in Toowoomba and come to Brisbane on weekends to minister and to attend different churches. I have not been too happy with the spiritual atmosphere of Toowoomba and I just came to know today from a close Pastor here in Brisbane that Toowoomba is the most occult city in the whole of Queensland state and possibly Australia.
